Hi there, The Pixel Watch is tied to your account through your 2-year term. If you give the watch to a family member in another province, you can complete a Transfer of Ownership for the device, moving it to their Telus account. Once the transfer is done, they would assume responsibility for the remaining payments, and it would no longer affect your account.

No, you won't be able to do that. The contract and plan are tied to the device. Unless you pay off the device balance and cancel the watch on your account, it cannot be transferred. Those are the only options available.

Thanks i guess we will return this watch than since we cant use it and cant exchange it for a 41mm sized one.
So what happens with my own watch its also on a plan like that. if it breaks on me and i put a new watch on my plan i buy else wheres do i immediately have to pay off the broken watch ?- TELUS_Support2 years ago

I'm assuming you are buying the watch yourself and not on contract. If so, then no, you don't because it's attached to your account, you can set up the new watch to replace the old and the contract will continue.
